Welcome to the first episode of the Movie Squad RTRFM Podcast, where your hosts Simon Miraudo and Tristan Fidler offer you regular servings of movie chat, which you can subscribe to and download for your listening pleasure! Recorded especially for this podcast, we provide two segments of movie discussion with our Special Guest, film academic Janice Loreck. Firstly, we take a new look at a classic with Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968), which was re-released into cinemas earlier in the year for its 50th anniversary, and discuss what makes it so great and relevant after all this time. Then, we decide to re-examine 2001, The Year In Cinema, by discussing what defined movies in 2001 as well as our personal selections for the Worst and Best Movies released then.
